In present time many countries are facing an ageing population as it puts significant pressure on healthcare services and pension systems. However, it is argued that this situation can be handled by technological assistance. While others think that the young generation would be more helpful. I strongly believe that government policies along with the assistance from the young population is more helpful.
This situation leads to several problem such as shortage of workforce, low income capacity, and high inflation rate in country, with many more. Japan is a great example of this following codition, as a large proportion of the population is aged, they are dying alone and their bodies are discovered after many weeks. In such circumstances, there always remains a significant debate regarding the reliability of virtual assistance and on physical existence.
A key point that needs to be noted is that many elderly people are not familiar with modern technological developments because they come from more traditional cultural and social backgrounds and therefore lack the skills to use such tools. Although technology can assist them in certain situations, there is a strong need for young people to provide direct care and support. Undoubtedly, human needs cannot be completely eliminated, and no form of virtual assistance can provide care in the same way that human interaction can.
In conclusion, it is essential for governments to develop effective policies and make informed decisions to support elderly people. At the same time, authorities should raise public awareness about the growing challenges associated with an ageing population, particularly its impact on the national economy. Although technology can serve as a valuable source of support, physical human assistance remains crucial for ensuring the well-being and dignity of older citizens.
